Bumper

Create a vehicle report using a license plate and US state. This action consumes an available vehicle-report credit or entitlement. Returns vehicle identity, mileage, market value, ownership history, accident and recall data, detailed pricing, specs, and safety ratings inline. Data availability varies by vehicle and source — this is not a guaranteed complete history.

create_vehicle_report_by_plate_v2

Create a vehicle report using a VIN. This action consumes an available vehicle-report credit or entitlement. Returns vehicle identity, mileage, market value, ownership history, accident and recall data, detailed pricing, specs, and safety ratings inline. Data availability varies by vehicle and source — this is not a guaranteed complete history.

create_vehicle_report_by_vin_v2

Create a vehicle report using year, make, model, and trim. This action consumes an available vehicle-report credit or entitlement. Returns vehicle identity, mileage, market value, ownership history, accident and recall data, detailed pricing, specs, and safety ratings inline. Data availability varies by vehicle and source — this is not a guaranteed complete history.

create_vehicle_report_by_ymm_v2

Retrieve focused accident, recall, salvage, reported-damage, repair-quote, and maintenance details from an existing vehicle report. Use the report_id returned by a create_vehicle_report_by_*_v2 tool. Multiple accident records may relate to the same underlying incident — do not treat the record count as the number of distinct collisions.

get_vehicle_damages

Retrieve focused market value, pricing tiers, price range, and ownership-cost data from an existing vehicle report. Use the report_id returned by a create_vehicle_report_by_*_v2 tool. All figures are estimates based on Bumper's available data and assumptions, not guaranteed sale prices.

get_vehicle_market_value

Retrieve focused ownership, title, lien, investigation, inspection, sales, and damage-history details from an existing vehicle report. Use the report_id returned by a create_vehicle_report_by_*_v2 tool. An empty list means no such record was found in the available Bumper data — it does not confirm the event never happened.

get_vehicle_background

Retrieve focused NHTSA safety ratings, complaint counts, and warranty details from an existing vehicle report. Use the report_id returned by a create_vehicle_report_by_*_v2 tool. NHTSA ratings are not available for every vehicle/trim — a missing rating means it was not found, not that the vehicle tested poorly.

get_vehicle_safety

Retrieve focused technical specifications, equipment, and design details from an existing vehicle report. Use the report_id returned by a create_vehicle_report_by_*_v2 tool. Installed equipment/options reflect what Bumper's data sources report for this vehicle and may not list every factory option.
